About Prospect Hill Academy Charter School
Prospect Hill Academy (PHA) is a K-12 public charter school serving nearly 1,200 students on three campuses in Somerville and Cambridge. Of these students, 58% are black (the majority of Haitian origin), 19% are Hispanic, 13% are white, 7% are Asian, and 3% are of mixed race. 61% are low-income and 48% come from households where English is not the primary language. PHA doubles our students’ prospects of attending college. 95% of PHA graduates matriculate to four year colleges, the majority being the first in their families to do so.
